Ingredients:

  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup white vinegar
  • 3/4 cup ground mustard
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric
  • 1/8 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/8 tsp paprika

Instructions:

  1. Whisk together the 1 cup water, 1/2 cup white vinegar, and 3/4 cup ground mustard in a small saucepan until no clumps remain.
  2. Stir in the 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp turmeric, 1/8 tsp garlic powder, and 1/8 tsp paprika until the mixture is a uniform, bright yellow hue.
  3. Place the pan over medium-low heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
  4. Stir constantly for 30 minutes until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon, leaving a clear line when a finger is drawn through it.
  5. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool completely.
  6. Transfer the cooled mustard into glass or ceramic containers with airtight lids.
  7. Store the containers in a cool, dark place for 2 weeks to allow the acidity to settle and the spice to smooth.
